Cozy Cabin

Our experience was exactly what we were hoping for! It was quiet, cozy, and delightful! My children enjoyed the dock for fishing and swimming. We cooked hot dogs and s’mores. The getaway from the hustle of daily life was just what we needed.

Very clean, well equipped, comfortable and cozy.

Loved the Z cabin. Plenty of room for all of us. Outdoor area was great. Weather little chilly to do all we wanted to outdoors. Youngest did catch a fish from the great dock. We loved the fire pit. They supplied all the firewood and was close by. Cooked hotdogs and s'mores. There were several games inside we played. Was short trip with grandkids and we would all like to visit again later in the spring. We really enjoyed Z cabin.

Weekend getaway

My family was able to spend the weekend at this site. The weather was perfect. We enjoyed fishing, cooking and eating together - played games and able to get away from the hustle of life. The serene atmosphere is just what we needed. Great WiFi was a plus though we spend most of our time outdoors -

Great fishing

Property owner is great. Vrbo was difficult to use. Plenty of parking. Easy access off paved road. Fished off the shore and the dock that is 60ft from the back door. Caught catfish, large mouth bass, white bass, bluegill and some little hybrid I've never seen before. Sun-Fri the area is very quiet. The layout of Z Cabin worked great. Plenty of beds upstairs. Indoor/Outdoor games galore. Everything worked as it should. The kitchen has all you need. Plenty of towels and linens. Plan to stay again sometime next year

Glad we made it back.

I love this little cabin on the lake. One thing I do have to comment on, is that the boat ramps for the lake do not work so well with the lake at 50% full, but PK is not a bad fall back lake and it is super close. This was my second stay at this cabin.

Cozy, Family friendly, Great Lake location

We had the best weekend getaway. The cabin was clean and cozy, with a great porch facing the lake. Very nice spot on the lake where we caught really nice fish, and swim with our 6 year old twins right off of the dock. Our host and her granddaughter helped make our daughter’s weekend wonderful! Definitely a lake rental worth booking.

Perfect getaway

Cabin was cute, cozy, clean - the beds were super comfy and the kitchen was fully equipped. The back porch with rocker and swings was wonderful. Last but no least, it was right on the lakefront. We dropped our kayak in, and fished from the dock. Good fishing!

Great getaway

The cabin exceeded my expectations. Wonderful place we even met the neighbor who was very kind. We fished, they were biting in the evening and threw back. The ambiance was fabulous especially the way the owner decorated the interior. This is an EXCEPTIONAL relaxation getaway.
